Scotty Anderson Fans?
Any Scotty Anderson fans on here? I never hear him really discussed but I really dig his playing. To me he sounds like a cross between Jimmy Bryant, Chet Atkins, and Johnny Smith.

Yeah, he's amazing. I don't know if you call it Country or Jazz or whatever, but the stuff he does shouldn't be humanly possible!

I know Scotty fairly well and yes I am a fan and yes he is incredible. He and my best friend's Uncle play together here locally every week. I haven't been to see them in awhile but it's pretty sickening. You will never meet a more humble guy when it comes to Scotty and his playing. Great guy all around.

Btw, my friend just posted a video of the two of them playing together on his Facebook page this morning. I didn't get a chance to watch it but I'll check it out and post it if it's something cool.

I have one of his instruction videos that I bought without knowing much about him. Amazing stuff. I was a convert. I'm surprised that some big name band hasn't snatched him up, but maybe he's happy doing what he's doing.

Yay! I love Scotty threads!
Yes, there are fans here on this forum. Not enough, maybe. "Plays Chet better than Chet", as someone said. If someone would go by his house & show him this forum on their laptop etc., he might like it. I believe that Scotty is a computer-phobe. There are some out there like that; my brother is 48 & has never owned a computer. |

Whoooo doggies!!! I spent last 30 minutes watching some videos of this guy, AMAZING! I have seen some of his old videos before but had forgotten about him. I've saved some of his videos to favorites, now.

Scotty is a very scary guitarist from what I've seen in the YouTube clips. Simply wonderful. I'm hoping he'll do an album of jazz standards some day.

I got stuck in Cincy over a weekend last fall, on a business trip gone wrong. I friend in the know told me, while you;re in Cincy, you have to see Scotty Anderson. Though his online presence is truly meager, I was able to determine where he was playing and went to see him in person, and had a chance to schmooze in between sets. Scotty's monster player and a heckuva nice guy.
